What’s in it
AI summary U.S. Highway 75, which runs from Sioux City to the Minnesota border, would be named the “President Donald J. Trump Highway.” Private groups could apply to pay for and install signs with this new name, but they must cover all the costs themselves. The Department of Transportation will create rules for how these groups can apply for and install the signs.1
Read the official explanation
This bill designates United States highway 75 which crosses the state from Sioux City to the Minnesota border north of Rock Rapids as the “President Donald J. Trump Highway”. The bill requires the department of transportation (DOT) to adopt rules to provide for an application, approval, and inspection process for the purchase and installation of signs indicating the “President Donald J. Trump Highway” designation by private entities. The bill requires all costs and expenses of the purchase and installation of the signs to be paid by the private entity whose application is approved. The DOT may approve more than one application to purchase and install the signs. The bill applies to United States highway 75 on the effective date of the bill, and applies to the highway thereafter regardless of whether the highway’s designation as United States highway 75 is subsequently changed by the government of the United States.
